    All though Blair was a bit older than I was we got along well in our teen years. We spent some good years together. I worked with Blair at MaGavins for a while. We spent a lot of time socially doing what young people do. We both shared a birthday in December and would call each other on our birthdays. As we got older we drifted apart but when we saw each other we would have coffee and catch up on what was happening in our lives. He was always a good friend and he will be missed. RIP Blair.

    Always enjoyed going to Imperial Esso and Royal Oaks Coop Gas so that I could visit with Blair. He was such a nice, polite person and always went that extra mile for me whenever I was there. We would run into each other occasionally around Grande Prairie and I enjoyed our conversations. RIP Blair!

    Was sad to hear of Blair's passing. I worked with Blair at Imperial Motors as my first job. Hadn't seen him often since then, but he always had a smile and a hello when our paths did cross. He was one of the best people I've had the honor of knowing.
